Lane Garrison Released from Prison

Former Prison Break star Lane Garrison has been released on parole, E! reports.

The actor was released from the California Correctional Institute in Tehachapi, Calif., Wednesday. He began serving a 40-month term in November 2007 after pleading guilty to vehicular manslaughter and two misdemeanor alcohol-related charges stemming from a 2006 car crash. The accident killed a 17-year-old boy and injured a 15-year-old girl.

Garrison, who was in a substance abuse treatment program in prison and served as a peer mentor to inmates, earned enough good-behavior credits to warrant an early release, according to Terry Thornton, a spokeswoman for the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.

Garrison, 28, will now enter an in-patient rehabilitation center to shorten his probation.

Last week, Garrison agreed to a financial settlement with the families of the victims.
